By Sh Abdur Rahman As Sudais - 13 Rabiul Awwal 1434

Praise be to Allah! We praise Him (?) as should be duly praised! We exalt His Greatness and Glory and beseech Him to grant us well-being and an honorable ending. I bear witness that there is no deity but Allah, the One with no associates, Who blessed us the “Chosen one” (i.e. Prophet Muhammad ?), al-hashir and al-‘aqib . I also bear witness that our Prophet, Master, and beloved Muhammad is His servant and Messenger, who is distinguished by the noblest of traits and the most durable virtues. May Allah send His Salat (Graces, Honours and Mercy) and Peace on him, his family, Companions who are singled out ?in being models? with the highest ranks, the tabi'in and those who follow them in righteousness for as long as the cycle of day and night is perpetuated.

O servants of Allah!

Fear Allah in all faith, and be aware that fearing Him (?) is the greatest evidence and strongest covenant.

"And whoever obeys Allah and His messenger and fears Allah, and is conscious of Him – it is those who are the attainers." [An-Nur, 52]

O Muslims!

All things must come to an end and disappear into utter oblivion. Every falsehood must recede and be defeated. Islam, however, the international, divine religion which is the life to souls and selves, will ever be on the ascent and will incessantly gather more strength. The Seerah of the best of all mankind Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam will ever be prevalent, radiant and continuously spreading. ?And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds. ? [Al-Anbiya': 107]

The blessed Muslim nation was able to ascend to the peak of glory and to lead mankind to the zenith of civilization, security, stability and fraternity only when it heeded the two noble revelations and when it absorbed, heart and soul, the noble Seerah of its Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam and his fragrant traits.

But when the nation of unity, power and succor strayed from that glittering divine guidance, it ended up as dependent, weak satellite states. It became prey to subjugation and divergence and fell into dejection, dispersion and loss of identity. May Allah grant us help! read more

The Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wa Sallam said: "If a man enters his home (and when he eats) mentions the name of Allah SWT, the Shaytan says: There is no lodging for you and there is no dinner. If he enters and does not mention Allah SWT, the Shaytan says: You've found lodging. And if he does not mention Allah SWT when he eats, he says: You've found lodging and dinner to eat".

Hence mention the name of Allah upon entering the home and before eating by saying Bismillah (in the name of Allah).
